I'm going through alcohol withdrawals that make me go into seizures. My parents won't let me buy anymore alcohol. What do I do? They're not aware that I've been into seizures and potential cardiac arrest, I've told them but they don't care.

On top: I'm not any sort of drunk, I just drink a lot but my parents are threatening me to live on the streets and call the police on me. Threatening me with not letting me do my own thing with life. Threatening to beat me and shit.
Medical ICU RN here. please go to the hospital if you are experiencing withdraws. Don't drive there yourself. if you can get a ride. call an ambulance.
Die or survive and stop being a fucking degenerate nigger
RN again, if you CANT get a ride, call the ambulance
pray to god for relief.
>>
anyone that has a history of alcohol w/d that includes seizures is absolutely a "sort of drunk"
I've been there before and wanted to kill myself. Also if I leave my parents won't accept me back in and I don't have enough money to get accommodation.
I wouldn't care if my kid was a fucking degenerate having seizures from withdraws either. Serves you right for being a shit bag. Call 911 you fucking retard.
What I mean is that when I am "drunk" I don't slur, get violent or sloppy. I just drink.
head to a detox or emergency room
My brother molested me at the age of 6, my dad use to consistently abuse me from 4-6 and 7 by hanging me upside down and beating the shit out of me. Call me a degenerate all you want, but that's okay I guess.
This. If you survive, stop being a faggot and deal with life in a healthy way. Go see a shrink and get your shit together. No one else but you is responsible for your future
once yr shakes idle down in the next cpl days think abt going to an AA meeting. it really does work.
shrinks dont work for addiction. jewish science etc
I've been there before and they did nothing, also my parents kicked me out for months. I was literally walking on the streets and on the verge of jumping off a bridge when sober.
I've had multiple shrinks since I was a kid which had an adverse effect because as a child until age 4 I had nothing wrong with me. I've been diagnosed with multiple disorders that I had no symptoms of. Now I am anxiety driven person who has to struggle at every point in my life.
>not a drunk
>alcohol withdrawals
go to rehab you dumb fuck, the first step is ADMITTANCE. admit you have a problem then man up and get help with your alcoholism or guess what? youre going to fucking die
OP is a faggot
i work in a detox unit of a homeless shelter--call the police on yrself (nonemergency line), they'll take u to somewhere that can help u
I would highly recommend inpatient rehab. Most have a medical detox before therapy starts. They also have social workers who can help with living arrangements and other support.
If not, find some sort of outpatient rehab. If you don't like AA, check out SMART Recovery.
Just don't detox at home, please. It's not just cardiac arrest, but also respiratory arrest. Seizures, especially longer than 5 minutes lead quickly to drastic brain damage that could be fatal or long term and irreversible.
I admit I have a problem, what I meant is I don't get "drunk" in the conventional sense anymore. I drink until I'm stable. Also try to read the other posts I made.
I'd rather be dead than homeless.
You could living arrangements at a halfway house if needed at not be homeless. Usually the only requirement is to stay sober.
ride out that early period of sobriety, everyone is crazy during their first couple months. AA worked for me, but whatever sort of thing you do, fling yourself into it and don't let go, because you WILL die. or end up in jail or a mental institution. or just be a mediocre shitty guy that constantly thinks about killing himself
don't wait around for you to get better by yourself. not going to work. alcoholism feeds on isolation.
I wonder how old you are since if you're underage or anywhere around young adulthood, it'd be a massive achievement to be addicted enough to alcohol to be in danger of seizures that will kill you.
I call this histrionic bullshit, go eat a bag of dicks you faggot and get through this, if it's too much go to the hospital instead of trying to spin tales how you get more alcohol you fucking lying dishonest piece of shit.
I've been molested and sexually abused more than once, once by my father too, been in a abusive relationship, was raped a couple of times (the first time resulted in my son, who i live with) and lived in a very dysfunctional family. My mom was a meth addict and was abusive towards me and just a bunch of other shit happened to me. I've never once touched drugs or became an alcoholic. I'm fucked up mentally and I wanna kill myself and can barely function, but I never let my experiences be an excuse for addiction. And neither should you. Some peeler have it or had worse and they still came out on top. Hey duke fucking help. Seriously. Go to rehab,get therapy and fix your life. No excuses
I live in a country where that isn't possible though.
I'm all for some treatment, but AA seems too religious if that makes any sense. If I do get in-patient treatment my parents will refuse to let me back in though.
most areas these days have intensive outpatient treatment programs (IOPs)--they'll pay for your first month of rent at an oxford house/halfway house. only requirement is to stay sober. less of a toxic environment than living with your family it sounds like
What, CBT isn't a possible solution? It's super effective. In other mental disorders. Why won't shrink help here?
I relapsed on alcohol today ironically
Mid 20s, sorry if that disappoints you. Get seizures every time I wake up with a taste in my mouth that is unrecognizable.
I'm sorry to hear that, I'm guessing it's also genetic as well. I don't use addiction as an excuse, I just drink to feel good. Or maybe a part of me wants to die.
i burned through maybe 20 shrinks--addiction as a disorder lies outside of the realm of CBT. it helped but it just maybe eased a couple of the symptoms without fixing the underlying disease, if that makes any sense
Your parents won’t have a kid if you ducking die from a seizure
Then look up SMART Recovery. I am a facilitator and instruct meetings. It's science based and secular so not religious based. No use of labels, no steps, just tools to use. It also has a very large online community that you can attend meetings or simply post discussions in.
My parents have no regard for that, they think I am over-exaggerating whilst I have these seizures whilst I'm convulsing on the floor.
Yeah, I think my depression is genetic as well because I first showed symptoms when I was 14. That's the first stage of addiction user, doing things because it makes you feel good, then you start to rely on it more and more. I get it, being mentally sick sucks and honestly I'm only alive because my kid's aren't old enough to take care of themselves. But why go out in a shitty fashion? You sound super young, so you have your whole life ahead of you. It's not too late to turn things around. Don't be me and be 28 with two kids you didn't want and poor as Fuck. You can do it man. You got this
After that what? I won't have anywhere to live.
It's not in-patient treatment. It's voluntary meetings like AA, online when you feel like it, or both.
>Stop being a dramatic pussy you aren't having seizures they're panic attacks and momentary lapses of judgement, you'll be fine
>Grow a pair and slap the fuck outta your parents and demand booze
>go to the hospital, call 911 yourself if you have to
>An hero and blame your shitty parents in your note
Take your pic user.
You are full of shit
Well thanks for that feedback, I'll try something online since my nerves are a wreck atm.
I got you. It's like treating a cold kinda. You can only treat the symptoms but it doesn't make the cold go away. I don't think it's something you can cure user (i heard LSD cures alcoholism?), Not at this point in time, neuroscience is only like 20years years old. What symptoms are left behind from CBT?
I almost died getting clean back in 2011 (alcohol). I listened to many speaker tapes \ recordings when I was drying-out. Just listen to their stories, you don't have to believe in the 'higher power' dogma, but it helped for me.

Are you going cold turkey? Wean yourself off. Im no expert but that sounds right
This brought a tear to my eye because he is being genuinely helpful and from a point of experience. Please listen to him user
No, I literally pass out and go into seizures if not seizures seizure like events. I don't care if you don't believe me, I was just looking for advice-- but this is Cred Forums and I know you're just trolling.
Hope that helps. It's all free so try it out
Thanks.
Yeah. Because you have built up such a tolerance from drinking so much that it’s obviously an issue.
Neck yourself
Move out of your parents house you faggot
That's sweet of you user. :) and if I sound like a faggot it's because I'm a femanon. I just don't want him to waste his life away. I may not know him personally,but we're all connected somehow in society.
Die, you fucking underwear stain.
Do some research, buy some rubbing alcohol, dilute until about 1% and inject directly into bloodstream
I am mid Chem bachelor so dont trust me too much
Have you ever thought that you need help?
